It is reported that Honor has added a new smartphone to its Honor Play Series. The new device is named Honor Play 20. According to its specifications, this phone belongs to the entry-level smartphone category. This device doesn’t seem to be the successor of Honor’s Play4 series as it has too low specifications.
As mentioned, the Honor Play 20 comes with an IPS LCD V-shaped notched display, which is around 6.52 inches. It is also packed with 1600×720 resolution and supports 16.7 million colors. The phone has the following dimensions: 163.93×75.79×8.95mm and weighs around 198g.
An entry-level chipset from Unisoc, Unisoc T610, has been used inside the phone, an octa-core chipset based on the TSMC 12nm manufacturing process. It features two Cortex-A75 performance cores and six Cortex-A55 energy-saving cores.
The phone features a dual-camera setup that consists of a 13MP primary lens (f/1.8) and a 2MP (f/2.4) depth lens. On the front, there is a single 5MP (f/2.2) AI lens for capturing selfies. The phone also lacks a fingerprint sensor.
The phone is also powered by a 5000mAh Lithium-ion polymer battery, which provides excellent battery life. However, it comes with only a 10W charger, which means that it lacks fast charging. The phone also features a USB Type-C port and a 3.5mm headphone jack. It also features the latest Magic UI 4.0, which is based on Android 10.
The Honor Play 20 is available in three storage variants: 4+128GB for CNY 899 ($139), 6+128GB for CNY 1099 ($169), and 8+128GB for CNY 1399 ($216). There are four color options: Magic Night Black, Iceland White, Aurora Blue, and Titanium Empty Silver. Customers can pre-book the phone by depositing CNY 50.
